Fluorine is very reactive to nature therefore it is used in rocket fuels, it is also used for burning other materials.
there are other flurine compounds which is used in toothpaste.
the aerosol sprays, cleaning agents and complex polymers are also produced by using fluorine. used in some public water facilties to stop people have tooth decay.If someone was to sniff fluorine one would never smell again and would slowly die...
poisonous gaseous halogen, it is pale yellow-green and it is the most chemically reactive and electronegative of all the element. It is so reactive that glass, metals and even water as well as other substances burn with a bright flame in a jet of fluorine gas. at high concentration it can cause death and in low concentration it causes eye and nose irritations. Fluorine can become very attached to soil particles.
